Just got back from putting about 80 miles on it.
Reading the manifold pressure through a scan tool, hits 17.2 PSI right at redline in 3rd.
The car is a powerhouse for sure. I need to find enough road to let it stretch its legs.
Anyone have the procedure for replacing the fuel filter and fuel pump? Might be a good thing to do as the demand for fuel it going up.

There's plenty of roads down by me 
Right now most of them have a few hundred thousand cars on them but i know of a perfect straight stretch out of the way. I've done a 182mph (garmon GPS lol) pull there and she was still pulling when i let off. Can't wait to see that thing in person

I try to boycott Virginia as much as I can.
I was coming home from a meet in Va Beach at about 0200 up 295. The only car on the road with a 70 MPH speed limit. Got pulled over and charged with reckless driving because I was doing 81 MPH. Yep, simply doing 11 MPH over the posted speed is reckless, a jailable offense. I had to hire a lawyer and had to eat the points because I have a Class A CDL from my fireman days. So, in general I will do everything I can not to spend a dime in VA. The troopers there are just asses. They love writing other police officers.

Now that the blower is clutch-less, how did Weistec fool the ECU into believing its still there.
What did you do to the harness that plugs into the SC clutch?

I'm with you on staying away from VA. They got a brand spanking new V1 from me.

I do not know if they programmed any engine safeguard logic in the ECU to open the bypass valve if things are not right or not. Not likely. If the ECU was not designed for features like that it is not something that can be added.
I did not take many pictures at all, but here are the few I did of the install:
The resistor jumper is that wire thing in the plastic box with the two blue T Taps. It gets tapped into the clutch harness.
The overall installation is very easy. I had it done in a couple of hours and was waiting on the ECU to come back.
Should not be considered part of the installation is reinstalling the stock crank pulley. The pulley is a snap. I do have the MB pulley holding tool. It took more time to wrestle the fan out than to do the pulley.
The stock supercharger comes right off very fast and you simply lay the new one in place and bolt it down. You do have to transfer the bypass valve to the new assembly and install the inlet on top of it before you place the assembly on the engine. In the picture above of the bypass valve you can see the stock MAP sensor. Just under the bypass valve and to the left in the picture is where the stock IAT is installed.
You do have to tap one hole in the front of the engine with an M8x1.25 tap that you will need to have. This converts a blank hole to accept one of the three mounting points for the pulley plate.
I am telling you, this is a very simple installation.

Air intake
I agreed that air intake or HOT AIR INTAKE has got to go. They have to come up with something different . Maybe modifiy old intake tubes or CF tube combination will work to reach the radiator outlets... That has got to be costing hp sucking in hot air ..
